They actually were having an affair, allegedly&#8230;<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9czhig-StyledParagraph e4e0a020\">It has probably been a pretty rough 24 hours for Mr Byron and Mrs Cabot, who both are married to other people.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9czhig-StyledParagraph e4e0a020\">However, other\u2019s pain is the internet\u2019s life-juice.
